flaxseed's Journal, 31 May 2011

Well my first week is over. I think I've coped reasonably well. I've eaten mainly pre-prepared meals and my weight has stayed stable but I haven't lost any. I've found out how hard it is to shop for one! I don't have enough to fill the dishwasher and its only a tiny one! The bedclothes and towels stay clean much longer and there isn't enough to make any one kind of washing.

Had a sticky time in the chemist this morning - went in to collect my diabetic medication and just gave my surname and they handed me one for OH. Burst into tears and made a right idiot of myself. I just couldn't stop and they took me into a consulting room and gave me a drink but when I emerged (with eyes like the proverbial holes in the snow)I could feel everyone in the store looking at me. It just comes and gets you some without warning.

Hopefully weight wil start to go down when I can face cooking again.
